Total Black Wallpaper
Total black, with the one exception that proves it — solar eclipse shots where the sun becomes a black disc. Otherwise: matte fields, AMOLED solids, 3D monochrome. Free downloads.

The best image in the total-black genre is not a black rectangle — it is a total solar eclipse, the sky's own version of the idea, and this gallery keeps a couple of those alongside the true solids. The rest plays the theme straight: matte blacks, AMOLED-friendly fills, a 3D render or two in strict monochrome. Together they cover both moods — cosmic and minimal — without leaving the brief. Tall and wide cuts are both present, wide slightly ahead. Save your pick with a long-press or right-click, then set it as your wallpaper. Free for personal use throughout.
Common questions
Do black wallpapers actually save battery?
On OLED and AMOLED screens, yes. A true-black (#000000) pixel is switched off rather than dimmed, so it draws no power — and with an always-on display that runs all day the difference is measurable. On an LCD screen it saves nothing, because the backlight stays on either way. Not sure which you have? Our OLED test tool fills the screen with pure black: on an OLED it goes completely dark, on an LCD you can still see the backlight glowing grey.
How do I set one as my wallpaper?
Long-press on mobile or right-click on desktop to save the image, then set it from your gallery or system wallpaper settings.
